Session Description

For generations, students lived with textbooks with print DNA: linear, undifferentiated, non-dynamic. New "techbooks"™ arrive with cloud-based media DNA: fluid, differentiated, embedded and rich as the web. Assessments and simulations connect organically to material. Blended education may grow faster with these supplemental resources as data from bricks and mortar adoptions track positive. This is not your father's eBook!
